Hey there. First, awesome tool, work so much nicer than gpm... this should be made more well known :-) But 2nd, is scorlling still expected to work? When in debug mode, I actually see that it recognises my two-finger scrolling (despite not having set --set-scroll-method=twofinger btw), but just nothing happens? I stumbled across that LWN post in which you've also commended. Was that finally removed from the kernel? Cheers, Chris. btw: Tapping does not seem to work out of the box, I do need to set the --enable-tap .
Thanks Christoph! Yes, as I understand, the ioctl was disabled in the kernel at some point, I cannot do much about it. It still works with the current Debian stable kernel. You can check by trying 'shift-page up / shift-page down'. If it does not scroll, then scrolling is disabled. Yes, consolation keep the libinput default behavior. Cheers,
sadly :-( Nah, that already stopped working in sid... I just wasn't 100% that it's actually the same. Maybe it makes sense to add that to the manpage/description, so that people don't ask you in the future ;-) Cheers, Chris.
